I don't understand fully:

"We are segfaulting on _alot_ of tests that we never used to!"
means what: you just discovered bugs in the tests or in LT or in OM?
(probably in all of them ...)

WRT the tests: I recently reported about a buggy test program which just
should crash due to a bug in the code. Probably not the only buggy test
example. Note that running the tests on different platforms is really
helpful here since some environments are less forgiving and therefore
more helpful than others.
